Brother HL4570CDW

New Brother HL4570CDW Wireless Color Printer

Great Color Laser But VERY Expensive TonerBy jelarvI purchased this in November 2010 and have had for 5 months. I wanted to give it 3.5 stars, but Amazon doesn't allow half stars. While the purchase price was a VERY good value, the price of the replacement toner and insistence of the system to force you to replace the cartridge even when they clearly still contain ink is very fustrating.PROS:1. Reasonably priced for a wirless color laser2. Excellent color documents3. Relatively fast4. Prints double-sided5. Wi-fiCONS:1. VERY expensive refills. I don't print that much and all 4 cartridges have run out in 5 months. The replacement cost for the 4 cartridges is $200. Because it's a relatively new model, it doesn't appear there are options other than to buy genuine Brother Products.2. The printer just stops working when it deems that the tonner cartridges need to be replaced. The documents I printed the day before looked great and so I can't believe all 3 color cartridges are fully depleated of toner, but Brother insists they must be replaced to get the printer to run again.3. The pages curl up at the ends.4. It won't print B&W or grayscale in PowerPoint 2010 even when selecting that option (Brother told me to call Microsoft and have them re-write PowerPoint software to fix this problem, which a complete blow off of a customer).5. It works great with a PC, but won't print color photos from a Mac (they come out B&W and won't size correctly).6. A little noisy but not too bad (don't plan to have a phone conversation via a speaker phone or headset if you're sitting within 10 feet of the printer while it's printing)See all 21 customer reviews... »» Read more about Brother HL4570CDW Wireless Color Printer.
